Enjoy a balanced, flavorful lunch featuring tender grilled chicken breast paired with a vibrant herb-infused whole wheat pasta and lightly steamed broccoli. The fresh herbs elevate the simple pasta, harmonizing with the smoky notes of the grilled chicken, while the broccoli adds a satisfying crunch and a burst of green color to your plate.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 cup Whole-Wheat Pasta
1 cup Broccoli
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice. Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the whole-wheat pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water.
In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh basil and parsley with minced garlic and lemon juice. Toss the cooked pasta with the herb mixture. If needed, add a little reserved pasta water to help the sauce lightly coat the pasta.
Steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over simmering water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Plate the sliced grilled chicken alongside a serving of herbed pasta and steamed broccoli. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful lunch.
